I really don't want to hang up

Chapter 180 Prelude to the Second Beast Tide War
There is no suspense about the result of the vote.

For various reasons, at least half of all those who voted were involuntary.

They want someone to vote against it, but that person can't be themselves.

Not everyone wants to follow in the footsteps of Qiyun Kingdom.

They lived happily in Shenbang.

No matter what is buried in the ruins of the Qiyun Kingdom, what does it have to do with them, the elders and saints?
What does it have to do with odd-numbered scholars?
The best change is no change at all!
Only by maintaining the status quo can these vested interests be happy.

Even positive change, they resist, refuse to accept.

But the dictator Lu Deng killed a carbine, which caught everyone off guard.

This time, the bill passed unanimously.

"Dismiss!"

Luden was the first to walk out of the Senate, like a triumphant general.

Judge Gured chased him out and got into the same carriage with him.

"Mr. Luden, I don't understand why you are doing this!"

Judge Gured took a big sip of water and shouted dissatisfiedly,

"What good will it do you, why don't you wait a little longer?"

Shenbang has just won a war of beast hordes. This is the first time in the history of Shenbang, and also the first time in human history!
Right now, what Shenbang needs most is to restore its vitality, and the last thing it needs is unstable factors!
Judge Guruide is very clear that with this victory, when the next beast tide comes, Shenbang will still go to war with the beastmen!
They were tied into this galloping carriage with no chance of getting off!

After winning this time, Shenbang must win the next time!
Only by continuing to win, can Shenbang remain great!
That said, the real test has only just begun.

In the view of Justice Gured, Luden's behavior was reckless, reckless, and impulsive!
madness!Simply stupid!
As long as you survive the next beast tide war, Shenbang will recover for another two years and fight the third beast tide war, but at that time, Shenbang will have more guns, more artillery, and more legions.
The really appropriate time is the third beast tide war, or the fourth!

However, Lu Deng must be in time for the next time, and lead the team to explore the secrets of the Qiyun Kingdom. Isn't this a life-and-death move!

Can't risk my life!

How can you make money by risking your life?
"There is no perfect time."

Luden put the scepter aside, rested his head on the carriage, closed his eyes, and said wearily,

"If you want to start a war, launch a raid, the best time to do it was yesterday, followed by today, and tomorrow is always the worst option."

Those with vested interests will twist together to block any change.

Just like what happened in the Senate today, there will only be more and more people who secretly oppose it.

It can't be delayed any longer.

Justice Gured fell silent.

Why doesn't he understand this truth?
Hesitation will defeat.

The problem is that Luden is betting on his own life by doing this!

Once he screwed up, Luden would not be far from death.

Luden had no choice.

He can't afford it.

On the one hand, it was Luden's own physical condition.

Although there are medicines left by the Qiyun Kingdom, the help of these medicines is only temporary, and at most they can help Luden prolong his life for several years.

He must seize the remaining time.

On the other hand, with the power of this big victory, the power of the Big Three has reached a new peak.

The republic system of Shenbang will slowly begin to restrain them.

For a long time to come, the Big Three will go downhill, and their glory will no longer be.

Lu Deng knew how to break the situation, just push an agent out, and use the opponent's knife to turn the nominal republic into an actual dictatorship.

But Luden didn't intend to do that.

This is his respect for God.

Yes, respect.

After coming to this simulated world, for more than four years, Luden has successfully integrated with the locals.

Amalgamation in every sense.

He is from Qiyun and also from Shenbang.

It is precisely because of this that Luden respects the state of God, respects people's choices, and is willing to play games under the existing framework.

As for whether future generations respect or not, that's none of Lu Deng's business.

Moreover, Pang's body is not optimistic.

Medication is not a panacea.

It is already a miracle that Pangge can recover his life.

If you want to command large-scale wars in the future, even if you can keep up with your mental strength, your physical strength may not be able to bear it.

Luden knew very well that in this era, a long-term war like a seesaw is a kind of torture for generals.

Pangge can fight the beast tide war at most, and as the nominal supreme commander, he can formulate a big strategy.

Let Pangge reproduce the operation of the highland camp, I am afraid he will not be able to do it himself.

The swords among the three giants gradually became blunt.

No one can resist the erosion of time.

This serious illness has pressed the accelerator key for Pang Ge's life.

He cultivated in Xueyun City for half a year before setting off to return to the Kingdom of God.

Pang Ge did not choose the waterway, but took hundreds of guards and made a large circle to the south.

Wherever they went, countless people ate pots of pulp to welcome Pangge.

This time it's real, not actors.

Luden didn't spend a penny!

The reason is simple: Panger defeated the orcs.

The orc's head on the road is the best military medal.

In this land, there are too many innocent souls sleeping.

In this way, it took another year of hard work on the road.

However, from another point of view, you can travel around in major towns and enjoy the treatment like a triumphal ceremony.

There is nothing to worry about Pang's physical condition.

Luden took time to meet the other party once, and Pang Ge had recovered, and he could kill two Ludens with one punch.

It seemed that Luden would die first.

During this period of time, the territory of Shenbang did not expand, but there were many vassals.

Shenbang began to collect a new tax [beastman tax], which is good for the people in Shenbang, and the tax of vassal forces is paid according to the head!
In return, Shenbang will resist the tide of beasts going south for the vassal forces, so that they don't need to live in the shadow of orcs.

Just live in the shadow of Shenbang.

Of course, if you are unwilling to pay taxes, the legion of the Kingdom of God will rush to collect taxes in a language that humans can understand.

The years of Shenbang are quiet and good, because someone has carried the burden for them.

Those who carry the burden are slaves, the people of other forces, and the people who have been squeezed and bankrupt by the goods brought by the caravan of the Kingdom of God.
In a flash, another two years passed.

During these years, the former dictator Loudon kept his life in seclusion, and no one knew what he was doing.

He also doesn't attend various dinner parties very much, and no longer communicates with ladies and ladies in depth.

Instead, Luden became a frequent visitor to the Palace of Greed.

He found that Justice Enwei was right.

In this way, Luden lived an absurd, fulfilling, sinking, and condemnable life in Shenbang.

Instead of getting bigger and bigger, his business shrank.

Luden sent many exploration teams to search for something called oil.

Instead of finding oil, many coal mines were found.

The mining rights of these coal mines were all in the hands of the Shenbang Senate, and Lu Deng was not allowed to get involved.

They had no choice but to find that the same mining was incomparable with Luden's efficiency!
Mining is a very hard job.

More labor, using slaves.

But slaves are not easy to discipline. Many slaves will slack off, be lazy, and what's more, they will deliberately destroy the tools they are given!

The tool is destroyed, causing real damage to the owner.

The slaves are happier!

No way, slave owners can only give slaves some indestructible tools.

These tools have one characteristic: they are cumbersome to use and very inefficient.

Reduced mining output even further!
Even so, the Senate still did not contract the coal mine to Luden.

They started to learn from Luden!

They will do what Luden does!
Hire workers, give daily salary, give full attendance, give vacations, and give promotion channels
It is difficult for them to understand the deep meaning of Luden's every action, but they can completely imitate Luden's behavior!
Although the effect is not as good as that of Luden, the output of the mine is finally normal!
The smarter Saint-Descendant family was in charge and came up with a new method:

Let slaves and workers work together!
The ratio is about 1:4.
If the slave's output is higher, he can get the same treatment as the worker: food, housing, public carriage.
The workers can only get 80% of their wages. Who makes him worse than a slave?
If workers are more productive, they get 110% of their wages!
It's rolled up!

Since using this method, the output of the mine has been rising steadily!
The unemployed slaves have finally found a new place to go and have a bright future again.

Time flies, four full years have passed since the last beast tide war!
On a certain day, the bell on the high platform rang again!

Shenbang once again activated its own war machine.

No, Gears of War, never stopped!

Pang promoted a group of new army commanders, who had their own confidants and products of compromise.

In any case, compared with four years ago, the firepower possessed by Shenbang is more than ten times stronger!
Except for the large-caliber artillery, which was forcibly destroyed by the Senate.

Small-caliber artillery and muskets can be equipped in units of [-]!

Under Luden's guidance, Pang also comprehended a way of using the phalanx musketeers.

Two words: strong!

Everything is ready, only the orcs are owed!
While Pangge was rectifying the army and preparing for the second beast tide war.

And Luden also hurried northward, leading the expedition team that had been formed long ago, and staying in Nice Castle.

Once the orcs go south, Lu Deng will lead the expedition team to take advantage of the opportunity to go to the Qiyun ruins to find out!
Luden, who was recuperating in Nice Castle, received a reply from ahead.

"What, the orcs are not going south?"

He climbed up to the high platform and looked into the distance with the binoculars. He didn't even see a hair of the orc!

Even though the bell of the Kingdom of God has already rung, the orcs still show no signs of going south!

Are they not hungry?
Aren't they cold?
The ringing of the bell meant that the invisible wall blocking the orcs had disappeared, and there was no reason for the orcs not to go south!
unless
Lu Deng immediately understood, supported his forehead, sighed helplessly,

"I killed too much last time!"
